I've worked with Jason on several real estate transactions and cannot stress enough how impressed…read moreand satisfied I have been with his services. Jason is diligent, straight-forward, and very resourceful. One of my transactions involved some unique circumstances, and Jason was able to uncover some important factors that all other attorneys involved missed, and would have been costly to me in the future if he had not discovered it. I'm also impressed by the amount of research that Jason does on his cases, the organization of all documents, and the follow-up long afterward. He called me long after to give me updates on my real estate deal, and a few good tips. Overall, I've worked with other attorneys in the past, but none that have put as much attention to quality work and customer service as Jason.

(Isn't new construction always complex?) Jason is an expert in real estate law and has a particularly strong reputation for his work with condos. We found Jason to be a very bright, diligent, responsive, detail oriented, and personable advocate for us. We can't speak highly enough of his work! We absolutely recommend him to others and won't hesitate to use Jason again in the future!

Could not recommend them highly enough for all your Real Estate law needs

Professionally and personally in my 63 years I have dealt with various lawyers for various things…read more Working with Chelsea Doogan when selling our home was hands down the most painful and anxiety provoking experience of them all. 1) Rude. (eg. Ask her a question and her answer many times is prefaced by "As I told you...."-whether she did or not). 2) Overly sensitive/defensive. (eg. Salient times during the negotiation she would take push back hard at any suggestion she was off base-not even hearing us out). 3)Not detail orientated; pretty big you think! (eg. Twice we caught non-disputed clerical errors; one by her and one by her 'raved about' assistant who was going to take great care of us. I could go on an on. It got so bad , directly and indirectly, by her participation in the process that at one point I called my realtor almost in tears ready to blow up the very great deal we had going because of her impact on the process. Thank God for my great realtor who kept things from ending. Chelsea knew fairly early on, through Alyssa, of my big discontent with her. Rather than try to repair things she wrote a defensive email making things worst. I kept wondering where Hornung and Scimone were in the process....whether they oversee the folks that work for them---hear how things are going..... The whole process felt like she was working more for the folks buying the house than for my wife and I. In our first meeting she raved about the other lawyer....how he had just made partner or was about to.... . She said she was telling me to reassure me we were dealing with a stand-up person, but for weeks after it felt , subjectively and the deal she ironed out, much more like she was hoping to impress him/not be in any conflict with him. Good luck with your endeavor. We were selling a home and renting from the buyers for a bit after they bought it while trying to buy a new home in Florida....and still working and packing up and saying good-bye to Franklin MA. The kind of once in a life-time stressful position you want a good team around you. Through the help of many, including things she did do right, we got it down-why I give 2 stars and not one. Best.

We worked with Jason Cohen as well at closing, and he was very thorough and did a good job at making sure I knew what I was signing and that I was comfortable.

Amy's attention to detail and ensuring the client was properly taken care of during all stages of the purchase made our situation seem easy, even though the underlying issues were far and above any normal closing.

She even made a house visit to ensure the work was being done prior to close. I recommend Amy to all of our friends and family in the area. I wish I could give her 6 stars!

Fred brings you in multiple times to explain and collect requested documents to give you a complete and in detail document neatly put together in a red book. Our family had some unique issues and Fred gave us great advice on how to handle this. The only issue we had was on his fee. The fee became larger than initially told. To compound matters, we used a law service that covered the attorney fees and there were some differences on what was covered and what wasn't. I don't feel like I was overcharged but make sure the costs are clearly known before you agree to his services.
